* [3.10] gh-95778: Correctly pre-check for int-to-str conversion (GH-96537) ↵Gregory P. Smith2022-09-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (#96563) Converting a large enough `int` to a decimal string raises `ValueError` as expected. However, the raise comes _after_ the quadratic-time base-conversion algorithm has run to completion. For effective DOS prevention, we need some kind of check before entering the quadratic-time loop. Oops! =) The quick fix: essentially we catch _most_ values that exceed the threshold up front. Those that slip through will still be on the small side (read: sufficiently fast), and will get caught by the existing check so that the limit remains exact. The justification for the current check. The C code check is: ```c max_str_digits / (3 * PyLong_SHIFT) <= (size_a - 11) / 10 ``` In GitHub markdown math-speak, writing $M$ for `max_str_digits`, $L$ for `PyLong_SHIFT` and $s$ for `size_a`, that check is: $$\left\lfloor\frac{M}{3L}\right\rfloor \le \left\lfloor\frac{s - 11}{10}\right\rfloor$$ From this it follows that $$\frac{M}{3L} < \frac{s-1}{10}$$ hence that $$\frac{L(s-1)}{M} > \frac{10}{3} > \log_2(10).$$ So $$2^{L(s-1)} > 10^M.$$ But our input integer $a$ satisfies $|a| \ge 2^{L(s-1)}$, so $|a|$ is larger than $10^M$. This shows that we don't accidentally capture anything _below_ the intended limit in the check. <!-- gh-issue-number: gh-95778 --> * Issue: gh-95778 <!-- /gh-issue-number --> Co-authored-by: Gregory P.

* [3.10] gh-95778: CVE-2020-10735: Prevent DoS by very large int() (#96501)Gregory P. Smith2022-09-021-0/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Integer to and from text conversions via CPython's bignum `int` type is not safe against denial of service attacks due to malicious input. Very large input strings with hundred thousands of digits can consume several CPU seconds. This PR comes fresh from a pile of work done in our private PSRT security response team repo.

* bpo-43687: Py_Initialize() creates singletons earlier (GH-25147)Victor Stinner2021-04-021-2/+2
| | | | | Reorganize pycore_interp_init() to initialize singletons before the the first PyType_Ready() call. Fix an issue when Python is configured using --without-doc-strings.
* bpo-43268: Replace _PyThreadState_GET() with _PyInterpreterState_GET() ↵Victor Stinner2021-02-191-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | (GH-24576) Replace _PyThreadState_GET() with _PyInterpreterState_GET() in functions which only need the current interpreter, but don't need the current Python thread state. Replace also _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() with _PyThreadState_GET() in faulthandler.c, since _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() is just an alias to _PyThreadState_GET() in practice.
* bpo-42161: Add _PyLong_GetZero() and _PyLong_GetOne() (GH-22993)Victor Stinner2020-10-261-0/+43
Add _PyLong_GetZero() and _PyLong_GetOne() functions and a new internal pycore_long.h header file. Python cannot be built without small integer singletons anymore.
